May I suggest http://www.peapod.com/ . Groceries direct to your door. Imagine you can eliminate Steps 1-15 . The website is very easy use. The prices are comparable to your local supermarket. No more schlepping. The produce arrives in good condition. The ice cream is still frozen. You can choose a convenient time for your delivery. There are specials to save you money. Your lists are saved so week to week ordering becomes a snap. Sorry, you still do have to put your groceries away.
